EPO and pure red-cell aplasia: Even though the anti-EPO antibody was negative by Enzyme Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) in our case, the clinical course, the markedly reduced reticulocyte count < 10,000/μL, the bone marrow (BM) biopsy revealing reduced erythroblasts, and its subsequent response to cyclosporine, were similar to EPO-induced PRCA.
